So far, the month has included fireside chats, coding sessions and launches. But for anyone interested in startups, the real party starts Thursday at OpenCoSF.

And judging from the roster, OpenCoSF isn't messing around. Check out a full list of participants on the event website and browse through a few highlights in the slideshow below:
